Getting Through Airport Security


The TSA (Transportation Security Administration) has a mantra to help passengers get through the security check as quickly and easily as possible:  Pack Smart, Dress the Part, and Have Your Documents Ready.

Pack Smart
   * Have your liquids, all less than 3.4 ozs, in a one quart clear plastic zip lock bag
   * Layer things in your carry on
   * Make sure your laptop (or other large electronics) are easy to pull out for separate
     inspection

Dress the Part
   * Remove everything from your pockets before you get to the head of the line
   * Wear shoes that come off and go back on easily
   * Take off your outer layers (jackets, bulky sweaters, scarves)
   * Consider wearing pants that stay up without a belt
  
Have Your Documents Ready
   * Boarding Pass (you will get this when you check your bags at the airport)
   * Passport
